MAP OF THE INTACT FOREST LANDSCAPES OF NORTHERN EUROPEAN RUSSIA. THE SITUATION AS OF APRIL 2004, WITH CHANGES FROM 2000 THROUGH 2004 Map of the intact forest landscapes of Northern European Russia. Situation as of April 2004. Click to enlarge (452 kb).   This map is based on the Atlas of Russia's Intact Forest Landscapes that was published in 2002 by a group of non-governmental environmental organizations cooperating in Global Forest Watch Russia.   The map shows how the boundaries of intact forest landscapes have changed from the year 2000 to 2004. These changes are the result of logging, road construction, and associated fires, but some changes are also due to a higher precision in the analysis, made possible by the appearance of new sources of information (mainly highquality satellite images with high resolution).   Images from the satellite Terra MODIS, showing the situation for different years during early spring (March or April), were used for a preliminary change detection analysis. A more detailed analysis was carried out using images of medium and high resolution from Landsat ETM (until 2002), Meteor-3M, Terra ASTER, IRS PAN, and IRS LIS
